  • I've got a voucher from a few years ago for El Segundo Sol but I don't think they participate in r.com anymore. Would I still be able to use the voucher there as I bought it ages ago or will I need to swap for something else? I'm assuming it's the latter

    I had actually forgot about r.com!! :o

    Yes, if they don't participate you have to exchange. They usually email you when you have something you can't use. I must log in and see what they have these days, and also see if I still have any unused vouchers! We had a really nice pizza from Vegas Best Pizza (at the BlueGreen I think it's called - on Tropicana just behind MGM). They stopped participating too though. We also did Origin India last year (I think), with an r.com voucher. It was very good.

    We are seeing Lionel Richie on May 4th. Let me know what questions you have and I'll try to answer them.

    Ask him if he stays "up all night" "dancing on the ceiling" and if it as "easy" as it seems
    The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot. If you deal with the lowest bidder, it is well to add something for the risk you run, and if you do that you will have enough to pay for something better.

    The Groupon Spice Market buffet is dire. You still have to pay the taxes which amount to $4

    We did the Brunch last week as we thought it would be best value. No crab legs!

    Also sat in a basement and a limited desert option.

    Will stick to M Resort buffet in future. The lunch is only $18 each and all alcohol is included. You do not have to wait for a waitress, just go up and get it yourself.

    We didn't pay tax on our groupon. Might depend on the staff member. Only time we've had to pay tax for a groupon was when we did the 2 yard drinks at Fresh.

    I seem to like different buffets from people sometimes. A lot of folk are saying they don't like the Bellagio buffet any more, but I find it just the same, and I tend to eat the same things at it. My favourite is Wynn, but there are never any deals so we only go once per trip usually (or extra if we do breakfasts).

    Thanks :) Will probably swap it for Slice of Vegas. We had a lovely meal there a couple of years ago, really great service too. They have a vegan menu, which I like (I'm not vegan but I prefer ordering veggie dishes when they're not just awful boring bean and cheese combos)

    hubby's mlife account has summer offers now...mine doesn't...not sure if mine never will or if they come out different times for different people. Our accounts are somehow linked, I don't particularly understand it.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Hey all - If my memory serves me right, someone mentioned that Cosmo matches Mlife offers or something along those lines. Quick search and I am not able to find it here. Anyone know anything or can direct me in the right direction pretty please? And also of course, if this is still valid!

    Our second trip of the year has been booked, think this is the 1st time ever we have two Vegas trips being planned at the same time :) Our trip in May is pretty much all set. For September, we will have two nights in Vegas, then we're off to San Fran for 2 nights/ 3 days, before heading back to Sin City. It is our 10th wedding anniversary, so needed to do something a bit different.

    Thinking if the Cosmo offer is available, to use this for our first 2 nights in Vegas, fly to San Fran and then return to Vegas for 7 nights. Hoping that we will get an offer for Aria sooner or later, as we've only got offers for Mirage/Excal/Luxor at the mo, that can be used for those last nights.

    Thanks all and for anyone travelling soon, have a fab trip and be lucky!

    I'm not positive, but I thought the matching was on players card levels vs offers, maybe?
